CXXXIX. The Father and the Father-in-Law. There was once a Raja who had five sons and his only daughter was married to a neighbouring Raja. In the course of time this Raja fell into poverty; all his horses and cattle died and his lands were sold. At last they had even to sell their household utensils and clothes for food.

I have so many in my heart that not one comes to the tips of my fingers. What a splendid woman you are and what a splendid man! To say nothing of all the other things! CXXXIX. TO GUSTAVE FLAUBERT Nohant, Friday to Saturday during the night, 10 to 11 December, 1869 I am expecting your telegram tomorrow.

On each side of the body, in the space inclosed by the band connecting the tips of the wings, a figure of a dragon-fly appears. The figure on the food bowl illustrated in plate CXXXIX, c, may also be reduced to a conventionalized bird symbol.

This question was put because He knew what the wrangle had been about. The disputants did not answer, but He knew without an answer, as His immediately following warnings show. How blessed to think that Psalm cxxxix. applies to Him 'There is not a word in my tongue, but lo, O Lord! Thou knowest it altogether, III. The compassion of Christ seeking to cure the sins He sees.

Flee then to CHRIST, and so be prepared to know God and your own heart, even as you are known. PSALM cxxxix. "O Lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.

In the peculiar decoration used in the treatment of the food bowl shown in plate CXXXIX, c, we have almost a return to geometric figures in a conventional representation of a bird. In this case the semblance to wings is wholly lost in the line drawn diametrically across the interior of the bowl.

The resemblance of this figure to those already considered is clearly evident after a little study. The decoration on the food basin presented in plate CXXXIX, a, is interesting in the study of the evolution of bird designs into conventional forms.

While, therefore, it can hardly be said there is absolute proof that these highly conventionalized figures always represent birds, we may, I think, be sure that either the bird or the moth or butterfly is generally intended. There are several modifications of these highly conventionalized figures of birds which may be mentioned, one of the most interesting of which is figured in plate CXXXIX, f.
